Sometimes OS X won’t let you change the owner of file using Finder. Annoying. Here are the simple steps to do it in Terminal.
First if you are just looking for the command it’s:
sudo chown -R _new_owner /root/to/file.txt
Where _new_owner is the name of the new owner you want to assign to the file
Now the steps:
1. Open Terminal, which you will find in Applications -> Utilities
2. Type in sudo chown -R _new_owner
3. Type the file path OR drag the file from finder onto the line after _new_owner to make the path appear.
4. Hit the enter key
5. You may have to type your OSX login password if prompted
6. Repeat for any other files you want to change

Basically the NameVirtualHost must match the value you use in your virtual host declaration, be it *, 1.2.3.4 or example.local
NameVirtualHost *
<VirtualHost *>
</VirtualHost>
You get the gist.
